§11.13.1μετὰ δὲ τὴν ναυμαχίαν χειμὼν ἐπιγενόμενος μέγας πολλὰς ἐκτὸς τοῦ λιμένος ὁρμούσας τῶν νεῶν διέφθειρεν, ὥστε δοκεῖν τὸ θεῖον ἀντιλαμβάνεσθαι τῶν Ἑλλήνων, ἵνα τοῦ πλήθους τῶν βαρβαρικῶν νεῶν ταπεινωθέντος ἀντίπαλος ἡ τῶν Ἑλλήνων δύναμις γένηται καὶ πρὸς τὰς ναυμαχίας ἀξιόχρεως διόπερ οἱ μὲν Ἕλληνες ἀεὶ μᾶλλον ἐθάρρουν, οἱ δὲ βάρβαροι ἀεὶ πρὸς τοὺς κινδύνους ἐγίνοντο δειλότεροι.
And after the sea-battle, a great storm came upon them and destroyed many of the ships that were anchored outside the harbor, so that the deity seemed to be assisting the Greeks, in order that, the multitude of the barbarian ships having been diminished, the power of the Greeks might become a match for them and equal to the sea-battles; for this reason the Greeks always became more encouraged, while the barbarians always became more cowardly in the face of dangers.
οὐ μὴν ἀλλʼ ἀναλαβόντες ἑαυτοὺς ἐκ τῆς ναυαγίας ἁπάσαις ταῖς ναυσὶν ἀνήχθησαν ἐπὶ τοὺς πολεμίους.
Nevertheless, recovering themselves from the shipwreck, they set sail against the enemy with all their ships.
§11.13.2οἱ δʼ Ἕλληνες, προσγενομένων αὐτοῖς τριήρων πεντήκοντα Ἀττικῶν, ἀντιπαρετάχθησαν τοῖς βαρβάροις.
And the Greeks, fifty Attic triremes having been added to them, drew up their forces against the barbarians.
ἦν δʼ αὐτῶν ἡ ναυμαχία παραπλήσιος ταῖς περὶ τὰς Θερμοπύλας μάχαις· οἱ μὲν γὰρ Πέρσαι διεγνώκεσαν βιάσασθαι τοὺς Ἕλληνας καὶ τὸν Εὔριπον διεκπλεῦσαι, οἱ δʼ Ἕλληνες ἐμφράξαντες τὰ στενὰ προεμάχοντο τῶν ἐντὸς τῆς Εὐβοίας συμμαχούντων.
And their sea-battle was very similar to the battles around Thermopylae; for the Persians had decided to force their way through the Greeks and sail through the Euripus, while the Greeks, having blocked the straits, fought in defense of those within Euboea who were in alliance with them.
γενομένης δὲ ναυμαχίας ἰσχυρᾶς πολλαὶ νῆες παρʼ ἀμφοτέρων διεφθάρησαν, καὶ νυκτὸς ἐπιγενομένης ἠναγκάσθησαν ἀνακάμπτειν ἐπὶ τοὺς οἰκείους λιμένας.
And a fierce sea-battle having taken place, many ships on both sides were destroyed, and when night came on they were forced to return to their respective harbors.
ἀριστεῦσαι δὲ ἐν ἀμφοτέραις ταῖς ναυμαχίαις φασὶ παρὰ μὲν τοῖς Ἕλλησιν Ἀθηναίους, παρὰ δὲ τοῖς βαρβάροις Σιδωνίους.
And they say that in both sea-battles the Athenians won the prize of valor among the Greeks, and the Sidonians among the barbarians.
§11.13.3μετὰ δὲ ταῦτα οἱ Ἕλληνες ἀκούσαντες τὰ περὶ Θερμοπύλας γενόμενα, πυθόμενοι δὲ καὶ τοὺς Πέρσας πεζῇ προάγειν ἐπὶ τὰς Ἀθήνας, ἠθύμησαν· διόπερ ἀποπλεύσαντες εἰς Σαλαμῖνα διέτριβον ἐνταῦθα.
And after these events, the Greeks, having heard of what had happened around Thermopylae and having learned also that the Persians were advancing by land against Athens, became disheartened; for this reason, having sailed away to Salamis, they remained there.
§11.13.4οἱ δʼ Ἀθηναῖοι θεωροῦντες πανδημεὶ κινδυνεύοντας τοὺς ἐν ταῖς Ἀθήναις, τέκνα καὶ γυναῖκας καὶ τῶν ἄλλων χρησίμων ὅσα δυνατὸν ἦν εἰς τὰς ναῦς ἐνθέντες διεκόμισαν εἰς Σαλαμῖνα.
And the Athenians, seeing that those in Athens were in danger as a whole people, put their children and wives and as many of their other useful belongings as was possible into the ships and transported them to Salamis.
§11.13.5ὁ δὲ τῶν Περσῶν ναύαρχος πυθόμενος τὸν τῶν πολεμίων ἀπόπλουν, κατῆρεν εἰς τὴν Εὔβοιαν μετὰ παντὸς τοῦ στόλου, καὶ τὴν τῶν Ἱστιαιέων πόλιν βίᾳ χειρωσάμενος καὶ διαρπάσας τὴν χώραν αὐτῶν ἐδῄωσεν.
And the commander of the Persians, having learned of the departure of the enemy, put in at Euboea with his entire fleet, and having subdued the city of the Histiaeans by force, he plundered their country and laid it waste.
